Cruel swords

I've seen a few use them for nostalgic purposes, but those cruel weapons have been rendered obselete by the likes of BotD and Grief.

I believe that some wolves still use old Cruel Mythicals of Quickness, or Cruel (some 2hander) of Quickness, don't they?



 
I think a Cruel Cryptic sword of quickness with 3 sok when they could be cubed can still be a top fury druid weapon.

is the recipe still active?
you can still cube cruels but they will no longer get 3 sok.

I think I've seen one guy with a cruel GPA of quickness once. They're not mainstream though, since they're incredibly rare.
 
A cruel Giant thresher of Quickness with 2 socket would make a nice weapon.
 
Are we talking about the 3 normal / 3 flawless gem recipe? I thought the ilvl was only 30, is that really enough to get Cruel and Quickness? I remember people saying they got those, but I always wondered why those mods didn't have a higher ilvl.

By the way, if I use the armour recipe on a glove or belt or whatever, will it still reroll the magic item? Or does it really mean just body armour?
 
Kiba said you could still cube Cruel though, is that really true? What's the ilvl required for Cruel and Quickness? And Evisceration while we're at it.
 
Yes, you can still cube cruels by using the 3 PGem + magical item recipe. Since "cruel" is just a magical mod, there's a chance of getting it.
 
It's perfect gems? What's the ilvl of the resulting item?
 
The ilvl of the resulting item is the same as the ilvl of the starting item.
 
Oh wait, I was getting confused - that's just the reroll recipe, not the reroll & socket one.
 
Oh, nevermind then. Disregard plz. :tongue:
 
So now I wonder, can you get anything decent from the socket magical recipes?
 
The 3 chipped recipe sets the ilvl to 30, so you need an item with a high base qlvl to be able to get the cruel affix. The affix level calculation procadure is somewhere in this forum...
 
God, I forgot about qlvls.
